At Levenshulme Station, there are 46 steps from street level to the platforms. Many local residents can’t use it. They have campaigned for step-free access - and we have listened. Work to make the station fully accessible to all starts in Jan 27! 👍🏻🐝

Update: Our awesome parks team removed the fallen tree! 🌳♻️ With help from The Bluebell, logs will be used for seating, fairy houses, and our dinosaur play area. 🧚‍♀️🦖 Branches for plant supports and dens, and the rest will be composted. 🌱💚 @MCRparks_ @MCC_Levenshulme
A tree has unfortunately fallen in Chapel Street Park, causing a safety hazard and impeding the use of the park. This matter has been flagged as urgent by council staff and will be promptly addressed. #Levenshulme 🌳 🛠️
